lizlemon-86433 I feel like this movie is thought of as some rom com classic but I kinda don't get it. Hugh Grant is soooooo cute and the supporting cast is really charming but when you think about it, it doesn't make a ton of sense and the jokes are kinda stale. I guess if you loved it when it first came out you might still, but if you haven't seen it before, don't be surprised if it's not as good as everyone says. Curtis has better movies sorry!

merelyaninnuendo Four Weddings And A Funeral3 Out Of 5Four Weddings And A Funeral is one's typical on and off, and morally obliged tale that is afraid to go beyond and is more than happy to play safe. Its unique idea plays on both the pros and cons' side, as after the audience sinks its teeth into the plot, the rudimentary process grows obvious and the audience finds itself waiting on the closure of it.Having said that, there are lot of high pitched dramatic sequence created in here that are filled with memorable even though cheesy dialogues, that ups the ante of the game in its genre. The script follows a textbook formula and is predictable as it ages on screen for the major part of it is spent upon by the makers on building the characters and the plots. It is short on technical aspects like sound department but is finely edited and has an amazing costume designing on its side. Richard Curtis; the writer, is satisfying on his job and delivers every essential ingredient for a typical love story but the real culprit in here is Mike Newell's; the director, execution as it fails create the anticipated impact which then latter leads to shallow emotional drama. The performance by Hugh Grant and Andie MacDowell doesn't leave the audience in awe of it but they are neither exhausted by it too, it's a decent performance. Four Weddings And A Funeral is a never ending yet never succeeding love story whose self-created weapon is unfortunately the doom of it.

chaswe-28402 Most of the women paraded in this disaster were attractive, but the men were awful. Reading the other reviews that seems to be the reverse of what the American reviewers thought. I like Andie MacDowell, although she didn't vary her act much, but I didn't like Hugh Grant, who didn't vary his act at all. American reviewers thought the opposite, except for Hugh Grant. This film is also far too politically correct. At least, it is for me. It's a comedy, but it isn't funny, unless you think Hugh Grant is funny, just for being himself, as always. The Britishness is wildly overdone, and so is the social cross-section. The language is witlessness inspired, especially the wedding service by Mr Bean. The events are uninteresting. The message is pointless. I don't know why I've given it so many stars. My advice is: stay away.

Matthew Luke Brady So this movie beated the 1997 film Titanic at the BAFT awards and just like the Oscars the BAFTA messed up.The story is about Charles and is circle of friends ponder love and marriage - even as they attend weddings (and one funeral). Miss right may be right there - but will Charles be able to admit he has found love? Normally British films to me are kind of an mix bag for me and what I mean is sometimes I will enjoy or be bored by movies from Britain. I don't know why it just happens, and this is coming from a guy who is from Britain. I was a bit shocked when I find out that this movie won best film at BAFTA awards and knocked the highest grossing movie of all time Titanic, and to the people who liked this movie more than Titanic that's fine but to me in my personal opinion this movie was okay.Let's start of with the positive: The acting from everyone was solid and this movie has a great cast.The movie did make me laugh at times with characters doing whacky things that no normal person would do at a wedding yeah those kind of jokes.I'm not going to spoil anything but these a scene where there are at this funeral and one of the characters give a sad and kind of moving speech.Now for things that didn't work for me: I didn't really think this movie is on the level of amazing as some has put it out to be, I'm saying it's bad I honestly think it's just okay.
